    Shimming your hood?

    Anytime :icon_razz Yea, that pic of that white car gives me a really good idea.. Not sure if I'd wanna raise it that much though. I guess I'll take that rubber strip off and see how well that works, then go from there.

    Shimming your hood?

    Sure did. I came across one a month or so ago but haven't found it again.. I think it was in the pre 89 bumper thread where there was a person who did but I'm not sure.

    Shimming your hood?

    Yea, I'm definitely gonna remove that weather strip as long as it doesn't mess with anything.

    Shimming your hood?

    Yes a pic. It's easier to see what it looks like than imagine it. I'm pretty sure a pic was my original request. Seems you don't like the idea of shimming a hood. Great, if you can't help, don't post. I want to get rid of some heat, so maybe take out the weather stripping and may shim it...

    Shimming your hood?

    I'd rather it vent air even if it doesn't look the best. But, I don't want it sticking up too far, so I don't want it looking gaudy.. Like I said, to a point..

    Shimming your hood?

    I have yet to see what it looks like so I'm not sure what it would look like. Function > fashion Well, to a point I guess...

    Shimming your hood?

    Meh, if I were to do it, it wouldn't be for looks. I kinda just wanted to let some excess hot air out, which is why my friends did it. And I don't do that whole "JDM" thing, I do what looks good, not what looks gaudy...

    Shimming your hood?

    Hmm, well, I was going to try my hand at photoshop to see what it would look like, but it wouldn't take long to just throw a few washers in... Like I said, I'm not sure if it would look good, just seeing who has done it and what it looks like... If I don't like it, I'll ditch that idea lol.

    Shimming your hood?

    Some of my friends own some nice Honda's and I noticed they shim their hoods. I would assume just adding spacers to raise the hood? It looks good on their cars but I'm not sure how good it would look on a MKIII Supra. Anyone have pics of their cars with the hood shimmed? They also told me...

    Got my car running today. : )

    So, I'm pretty excited. I replace the accordian hose, a few vacume lines, and put some of that "Heet" stuff in the tank. The car sat since October last year due to the death of my clutch. So, threw the charger on it, checked the oil and coolent, and she fired right up. Me= happay lol. My lil...

    A short ride in my brothers car

    Yea, it's just temporary til we get his interior straightened out... I'll get some footage outside the car. Yea, gotta love my commentary. Cops roam that road frequently so I had to let him know what he was getting into..

    A short ride in my brothers car

    So, the car has been running good consistently lately, so I thought I'd do a lil in car action to see how it does. Still has a few bugs to work out, but not bad for being almost bone stock other than a built bottom end. I think he has a boost leak somewhere, I'm guessing thats why his...

    Ok. Let's hear it! Your best street win and yes...your worst street loss!

    Worst: Losing to my buddies bone stock foxbody vert stang that went high 15's. Best: Fixing the BHG and pulling bus's on him weeks later. I have some really good ones, but I don't want to clutter up the thread.
